Anyone looking to spend 60k on a Bronco?

[Chicago71Bronco]

So I was sitting on the John at work today doing my normal Bronco research and I came across this pricey ride at a local dealer site.

Pictures are from cars.com on my iPhone so they might not be the best.....What do you guys think this thing is really worth? (not that I'm looking or could afford it if I were)

Also, anyone know what air filter that is? Looks pretty cool....

such a high price and no rear seat? that's more of a $15,000 to $25,000 rig. i am being kind with that comment.

however, when non-eb folks pay this amount, then i guess it makes our ebs worth a lot more, too! it's a win-win situation!

Why buy that one for 60K when you could spend $89,995.00 and get this one?

The seller says "even the roll bar is custom."

Even the roll bar is custom?
What makes it custom? That it wasn't bought out of a catalog?
That would be 90% of them wouldn't it.

Promise you guys won't make fun of me when I advertise mine when its done! PROMISE!!;D

I agree with the above post $25,000, that air cleaner is cool though. I think summit sells it for around $250.00

Looks like a Weiand.

 

[Bronco Junkie]

It is only worth that much if it comes with a bag with $35,000 cash inside.;D

I always thought it looks like that filter would be sucking nice hot air off the valve covers, and exhaust manifolds, the opposite of what any performance or stock filter should be doing. The only worse design is the triangle foam piece of crap that deteriorates and catches on fire, I forget who made it, but I bet someone on here knows what I'm talking about or has one and is now questioning having it!

Edelbrock made those triangle foam filters with the wire mesh over them.

I had one on my first car ('68 Chevelle) they're good for clearing a hood if you have a high rise intake manifold.

On a bronco though you can just add a body lift. ;D

Too funny, I had one catch on fire when my '68 backfired trying to start it up.
Luckily there was a extinguisher close by and no other damage was done.

80K and the first thing I noticed is it doesn't even have windshield wipers %)

Those air filters look cool but restrict the kind of air flow your carb needs to maximize HP. The big 360* 3" cleaners breathe better.

When we see 89,995 the first thing we SHOULD think of is 90k, not 80k. LOL But, I guess that's why marketers will drop the price $5 to stay UNDER the magic next decade. It works on all of us.
